Benefits of technology

[0166] Incorporating the printhead into a cartridge ensures its regular replacement and thereby maintains print quality. Putting the drive mechanism in the cartridge means that the dimensional tolerances between the drive mechanism and the printhead can be

Problems solved by technology

The problem with these options is that they require the mobile telecommunications device to include Netpage tag printing capabilities.
Whilst this is less of an issue with large, mains-powered printers, it can be an issue in small form-factor articles such as mobile telecommunications devices.
This requires that the printer include a Netpage sensing device, which may be somewhat bulky fo

Structure

[2418] A wide range of different tag structures (as described in the assignee's various cross-referenced Netpage applications) can be used. The preferred tag will now be described in detail.

[2419]FIG. 130 shows the structure of a complete tag 1400. Each of the four black circles 1402 is a target. The tag 1400, and the overall pattern, has four-fold rotational symmetry at the physical level. Each square region 1404 represents a symbol, and each symbol represents four bits of information.

[2420]FIG. 131 shows the structure of a symbol. It contains four macrodots 1406, each of which represents the value of one bit by its presence (one) or absence (zero). The macrodot spacing is specified by the parameter s throughout this document. It has a nominal value of 143 μm, based on 9 dots printed at a pitch of 1600 dots per inch. However, it is allowed to vary by ±10% according to the capabilities of the device used to produce the pattern.

[2421]FIG. 132 shows an array of nine adjace...
